The 6 Best Places To Eat Veggie, Vegan and Healthy in Playa del Carmen
Finding veggie and vegan options in Playa can seem a bit difficult (the city is really serious about their tacos 🌮), but hopefully this guide will change your experience even if you're not strictly a herbivore 🌱
Not so many years ago, discovering a veggie/vegan option on a menu meant finding one salad or some sad fries, but not anymore. A lot of people are adopting plant-based diets (for many different reasons), and we want to help our BeeFriends 🐝 find their favorite healthy spots in Playa del Carmen.
1) Bio & Natural Organic Store and Restaurant
www.tripadvisor.com
Known for being one of the first vegetarian and healthy food restaurants in the area, Bio & Natural has a lot to offer. Breakfast, lunch and dinner options are broad here, and we love the quality of the products they use. Soya pastor tacos, falafel and veggie burgers are only some of the dishes you can choose from.
Addresses: 10th Av. between 16th Street and Constituyentes Av. / 5th Av. between 40th and 42nd Street.
Want more? This restaurant also has an entire organic store with products ranging from gluten bread and organic supplements, to a wide variety of essential oils and beauty products.

2) The Pitted Date
www.thepitteddate.com
This is a 100% plant-based restaurant that also includes some gluten-free options. They open at 8am every day and this is an excellent opportunity to try their vegan and gluten-free hotcakes, waffles and crepes for breakfast. They also have yummy alternatives for lunch, such as burgers, tacos, sandwiches and much more. We heard that their omelets are a Must-Try (and we bet they are).
Address: CTM Av. between 1st and Cozumel Street.
An extra? They recently opened a restaurant in Tulum as well.

3) Bio-Orgánicos

A lovely spot in Playa with great options for each meal of the day. Smoothies, juices, coffee, organic eggs, pancakes and fruit bowls are just a few of the delicious dishes to start your day.
Some of their dishes have the traditional Mexican style in a veggie alternative: panuchos, gorditas, chilaquiles, pastor tacos and ceviche are part of the menu. Oh yes, ceviche is made out of coconut to replace seafood and it works perfectly.
Address: 26th Street between 5th and 10th.
A plus? They also have an organic, gluten-free and veggie store on-site, and they recently opened a new grocery store located at 25th Av., corner with 30th Street.

This restaurant is famous for their super fresh and nutritious food bowls, but they have excellent options for breakfast and lunch as well. Fresco Hábito has 16 different types of food bowls to choose from, and a wide variety of smoothies. The combinations are outstanding and their products are extra fresh (that’s their main premise).
Address: 1st Street, between Constituyentes Av. and 20th Street.
The best part? You can personalize and order your own bowl from any of their ingredients.
